Workday WSDL Account (Deprecated)

This procedure is maintained for reference only. The Workday Account procedure above should be used instead as it follows Workday's best practice, reducing external file dependencies.

To create a Workday WSDL Account:

  • Click Create, then select Workday > Workday WSDL Account.
  • Change the label if necessary.
  • Supply the UsernamePassword, and Tenant for your Workday account.
  • Download the tenant-specific "Integrations WSDL" and upload it in the corresponding WSDL box. An example Human Resources service WSDL.
  • is:sldb:///Snaplogic/projects/fullsail/WD_GMS1_Human_Resources.wsdl.  Generate these WSDLs from inside Workday using the Workday provided public web service report and upload or host these files because the Workday report url is not a static or persistent URL. Do not use Workday WSDLs found at https://community.workday.com as these WSDLs do not contain valid endpoints.
  • Click Save.

    This account is used by the Snaps in the Workday Snap Pack.

    You can create an account from Designer or Manager. In Designer, when working on pipelines, every Snap that needs an account prompts you to create a new account or use an existing account. The accounts can be created in or used from:

    • Your private project folder: This folder contains the pipelines that will use the account.
    • Your Project Space’s shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users that belong to the Project Space.
    • The global shared folder: This folder is accessible to all the users within an organization in the SnapLogic instance.

    Account Configuration

    In Manager, you can navigate to the required folder and create an account in it (see Accounts). To create an account for Workday: 

    1. Click Create, then select Workday > Workday Account or Workday > Workday Dynamic Account.

    2. Supply an account label.

    3. Supply the UsernamePasswordHostVersion, and Tenant for your Workday account. When using Workday Dynamic Account, you must specify the all the details except Version as expression properties referencing pipeline parameters.

      • Version must be a numeric value (no additional characters).

    4. (Optional) Supply additional information on this account in the Notes field of the Info tab.
    5. Click Apply.
    Info

    Host, Version and Tenant can be found out by following any of these simple steps:

    1. You can first contact your Workday Security Administrator or your Implementation Partner.
    2. If you have access to your Workday Customer Portal, you can get information from there
    3. If you have access to the Workday Community, you can access the Workday Data Centers page from where its three data centers are listed. (AshburnPortland and Dublin). You need Workday Community access for this.
    4. Another easy way of finding this is through a RAAS (Report As A Service)
      1. Create an Advanced Report that is Web Service Enabled
      2. From the related actions of the Report, click on Web Services > View URLs
      3. Copy the Workday XML link. This is your link that gives all the information. 
        For example:
        https://<host-prefix>.workday.com/ccx/service/customreport2/<tenant_name>/<username>/CR_RAAS_SNAPLOGIC_READ_DEMO
    5. Latest Version can be found out from this Public Workday Web Services (WWS

      Info

      Enter additional information on this account in the Notes field of the Info tab. This information may help other users, especially if there are already multiple accounts of the same type.


    4. Click Validate to verify the account.
    5. Click Apply to complete configuring the Workday account.

    Using SnapLogic Manager

    Use Manager to create accounts without associating them immediately with Pipelines.

    Note

    Accounts in SnapLogic are associated with projects. You can use accounts created in other projects only if you have at least Read access to them.

    1. In the left pane, browse to the project in which you want to create the account and click CreateAccount Workday, followed by the appropriate account type.

    2. Repeat the steps 3 through 5 listed in the Creating an account section, to set up the account.
    Note

    Avoid updating account credentials when Pipelines associated with that account are executing. Doing so may lead to unexpected results, including locking your account.
